Similar transcription funny...from the Dallas Vocal Majority's "Have a little time to talk with myself"...the guy who did it got "let myself be chico, like a man"...the actual lyric..."let my selfish ego take command"!! He introduced a new word into the vocabulary of British barbershop singers 20 odd years ago..."you're sooo chico!..." hee!
